Timeline Cleanse: Please enjoy this photo of a praying mantis that was sitting on top of my car windshield, but the angling and lighting were so weird it looks like a giant praying mantis wandering a corn field in Iowa.

Why, when walking past a sewer grate, do I both simultaneously squeeze the phone I'm sometimes holding in my hand a little bit tighter, and also then crave throwing it in

I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

4. Dead Letter Dept.

Whew the music and vibes with this game is off the charts. You put weird, sad and even creepy letters into a system. You live in a dingy apartment. There's certainly nothing nefarious happening among the motonony =) cannot recommend this enough.

May 2026 be better, safer, and fairer. May all that was good in 2025 be better in 2026. May all that was bad in 2025 be things we put our efforts towards improving.

2025 was somehow one of the best and worst years of my life.

But I did a lot of work that I enjoyed and most importantly was very proud of.

In January, I played and reviewed Dead Letter Dept which remains one of my favorite games of the year

I was on the edge of my seat my entire time playing this game, trying to type with one hand while half-hiding my eyes with the other. The way the game holds your attention through such a simple concept is awesome!

False Carolers are flocks of feathered humanoid creatures draped in many layers of clothing that are known for their pleasant “singing” vocalizations and for approaching the entrances of homes after dark.

Answering the door is not advisable.
